While 3-0 shows it was a simple and easy match, it wasn't! 1 turn differences - coin tosses mattered a lot! Ggs ARTHA and best of luck for Team
for the rest of the War!

Preamble: I rolled Photon with my secondary acc... ohnoes! Curse of the Photon! And Wings with my main... ah, the horror!
Start1: Ah, server doesn't like us. ARTHA reboots. OK, let's chill out.
Start2: I saw the Life Mark, and knew Rustlers are coming. Damn, that's a quite fast deck! We shouldn't have touched our round 1 PUgons deck!
(Removed Silences and Lightnings...)
game #1 (1-0)Discord in hand. Light pillars. Yep, it is Rustlers, indeed. Discord goes crazy, gives 2 light quanta to ARTHA. 1st Emerald Dragon arrives,
but I PU it to keep the tempo. He couldn't play any more Dragons for a while, which was crucial, since I had to wait 2 turns to get quanta for an
Amethyst Dragon. Survived the mitosis with 17 hps.
game #2 (2-0)Discord in hand. We both were a bit low on quanta. Luckily Discord delayed the playing of the first Rustler by one turn. This time ARTHA smartly waited with Dragons,
and he could do that since my quanta came slower. But eventually I was able to play Dragon+CP+CP+PU+PU. I was VERY lucky, CPs were 5/5 and 5/1!
He was left with 6 hps, I was thinking "Hello 2-0". But a Miracle happened. But 70 dmg is 70 dmg, so he was set back to 29 hps. The situation was like this:
if he draws Dragon (having exactly 44 dmg, with my current hps being 44...), he wins. He drew Light Tower. Phew.
game #3 (3-0)Won coin toss. Actually I won coin toss in all games... Discord wasn't in hand, but came in next turn. Had 3 PUs, one added next turn = 4 PUs in hand.
ARTHA decided to push early, so another PU'd Emerald to my side, and since quanta flow was great in this game a turn later Amethyst Dragon x PU =
I was one turn from winning. Now I prayed for a Dragon draw on his side, to avoid another Miracle. It happened, survived with 5 hps!
